I haven't posted all week. It's been a busy one. The summer has been great but fall arrived on Monday with all the kids coming back full time to the daycare. I've been wiped out all week.. I didn't even take many pictures!

1. My sister Nicole made a surprise solo trip down on Saturday night and got to enjoy some time with her :)﻿

2. While Pete & Peter went to Funtown on Sunday with Ben & Connor, Jack and I spent the day on the lake with Nonni & Poppi.﻿

3. Everyone's back! Busy week but lots of fun!﻿

4. Jack being Jack. This is how he wanted to ride in the stroller the other day!﻿

Well...it's time to start cooking! I haven't cooked a dinner in two weeks until last night!!!! With my sisters up on vacation the first week and us on vacation this past week, it just didn't happen. It was nice to fall back into the routine. Speaking of fall, this week is really my last week of summer before I go back full time! Thankfully the forecast is going to be BEAUTIFUL! In the 80's all week! While I was looking over the cookbooks yesterday Pete came into the room and I asked if he felt like any particular meal. His reply..."Let's grill all week!" Great idea! We need to embrace this weather as long as we can! Enjoy your week :)

One of our meals out, Becky's Diner for breakfast and of course the kids LOVED their meals!

After a fun weekend at camp, We headed over to NH on Monday to Story Land! They have a great deal that any day you enter the park at 3pm, you get tickets for the next day as well. We intended to make the most of it and try to get on as many rides as we could! It wasn't as packed as we thought it would be and got on almost all the rides that first afternoon!

Peter & Jack thought the pumpkin house was silly!

Riding the tea cups! First ride!

Jack was JUST tall enough to make the polar coaster! Pete wondering why the heck I am taking a picture on a ride, haha! I had to capture Jack's first coaster!

Of all the attractions, of course the boys LOVED this one!!!﻿

Attempting a selfie with Jack on the whales!

Pete & Peter riding the tractors.

Riding the elephant after the jungle safari.

As you get on Splash Battle, there is a sign that reads..Warning, you will get soaked!!! They were right! Peter loved it though :)

Still wet, so we tried to dry off on the shoes.

Jack about to fly high!

After a train ride around the park, we left the park around 6:30 and headed to dinner.

Peter wanted to take one of us, since I always take there picture! He did a good job!﻿

We stayed at the Hampton Inn and they had a small water park. The boys were so happy, you wouldn't know we take them to Splashtown on a weekly basis!!﻿

Tuesday morning it had just started to sprinkle when we arrived back at Story Land. There were NO LINES and we did all the rides again, sometimes we just stayed on the ride to go a second time. We made the best of it and had a BLAST!!

The boys(Pete included) had lots of fun in the Loopy Lab.﻿

Peter was so funny at the magic show! As you can see from this picture, he was pretty amazed at some points!!﻿

Waiting for the circus to begin!﻿

On our way to Cinderella's castle! Even though the boys had no interest in meeting Cinderella, they thought it was fun to ride in a pumpkin :)﻿

The only girl in the family meeting Cinderella.﻿

Cinderella was on her way to tea, so she rode down from her castle with us!﻿

Rainy day = no line for the Bamboo Chutes. In fact, Pete & Peter didn't even get off at one point, they just stayed on and went again! ﻿

We had such fun time, and because of the rain, we got free passes to go back again! I'm thinking it would be fun on a pretty September day :)
